User's notes

Tea trees swarming with honey bees, native bees, hover flies, pintail beetles and a few other flies, wasps, and other beetles. Pintails also plentiful on a firethorn bush. Minute beetles on Bulbine bulbosa flowers. Will send other photos separately. Honey bees also working the cotoneaster which is just coming into flower. Two large wasps seen - possibly Agriomyia sp. - on the tea trees.
